ICE detains reporter Estefany RodrΓ­guez in Nashville - Nashville Banner Reporter Estefany RodrΓ­guez, detained by ICE with no arrest warrant, may face deportation. Her attorneys seek immediate review of the legality of her case.

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.

They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

If it’s true that the United States bombed an elementary school and killed scores of children it is an unfathomable crime. I have never been more disgusted to be an American.

Anthropic PBC submitted a proposal to compete in a Pentagon prize challenge to produce technology for voice-controlled, autonomous drone swarming, according to people familiar with the matter.
The company's submission focused on using its Claude AI tool to translate a commander's intent into digital instructions and to coordinate a fleet of drones, with humans having oversight of the system.
The Pentagon has barred its contractors and their partners from any commercial activity with Anthropic, and instead selected other companies, including SpaceX and xAI, and defense technology companies that partner with OpenAI, to move forward with the drone swarm technology project.
Anthropic PBC was among the artificial intelligence companies that submitted a proposal earlier this year to compete in a $100 million Pentagon prize challenge to produce technology for voice-controlled, autonomous drone swarming, according to people familiar with the matter.
The company made the submission during fraught negotiations with the Defense Department over Anthropic’s red lines for how its technology was to be used by the military, according to the people, who asked not to be named to discuss sensitive matters. On Friday, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered the Pentagon to bar its contractors and their partners from any commercial activity with Anthropic.
The role that AI could play in efforts to develop so-called killer robots that can select and fire at targets without human involvement is at the heart of the high-stakes bust-up. Executives at the $380 billion company have repeatedly insisted they support the extensive lawful use of AI in combat, short only of mass domestic surveillance and β€œfully autonomous weapons.”
Anthropic didn’t think developing the technology would cross its red line, according to one of the people. Although the effort could ultimately create lethal drone swarms, a human would still be able to monitor and stop the system if necessary, according to the person.

Drones have been incessantly buzzing throughout the night and into morning.

Numerous attacks across the country. Reports of at least 10 dead in an attack on Baalbek.

Many are angry/questioning Hezbollah’s decision to attack Israel again. It’s clear Israel was waiting for this

To me it’s as simple as this: a lot of people would like to force their children to be cisgender (and, generally, straight and Republican and Christian). They think they can force their children to be who they want; therefore, they think someone is forcing kids to be trans.

Commanders Accused of Framing Iran War as Biblical Mandate, Jesus' 'Return' More than 100 complaints were made by military officers between Monday and Tuesday, totaling over 200 in total across every installation.

All they need to do to call it is provoke Russian into an launching an attack on Israel and they'll call it. Wonder who their Christ will be.
